The Westray Nursery

​In the Westray Nursery our aim is to help children develop in a safe, happy and exciting environment. We ensure our children have access to a wide range of learning experiences that leave them confident, eager and enthusiastic learners who are looking forward to starting school.

We use various approaches to learning. The main part of our day is based on the High/Scope approach, where children are involved in planning their activities and reflecting back on them, within a carefully planned environment. We come together at the start and end of the session, and we will also sometimes get small groups of children together so that we can do activities that support and challenge them at the right level.
